Sapphires, a common gem found in the treasure system, come in many varieties. Most notably are the different color sapphires, such as the yellow sapphire, pink sapphire, and blue sapphire. All sapphires are a crystalline form of aluminum oxide, also called Corundum.[1]

Sapphires are the food source of sand elementals, which were a prize from a quest related to the Wavedancer event.
